Happy Fourth of July!

Today's post features another beautiful Color Challenge for the Pals Paper Arts! The colors are festive and celebrate Independence! Today is all about the USA and it's people…it's all about us! 

The Pals Paper Arts Design Team showcased beautiful cards with the "festive" theme in mind. The color combination, once again, is beautiful…Pacific Point, Real Red and Crumb Cake.

Pacific Point is a beautiful shade of blue. For my card today, I created some polka dot patterned paper using a sponge dauber and ink pad. I saw this technique in the new Stampin' Up! catalog and thought it would be fun. Easy…easy…easy! Give it a whirl; just dab your dauber on your ink pad and "dot" your cardstock. Use your imagination to create different patterns, maybe "daub off" once for a lighter dot. I'm sure you'll find lots of possibilities.

This week kicks off the beginning of weekly challenges at the Pals Paper Arts. "Design Team 1" created beautiful projects for your enjoyment and inspiration. Next week, "Design Team 2" will take the helm and share their talent and creativity, so check in on the Pals Paper Arts fun often since there'll be new and inspiring projects posted every day.
